Reassemble the system and turn on the compressor for a few seconds for drying. A mask is used for children under 6 years old. A mouthpiece is used for children 6 years and older. Kids using a nebulizer should be sitting upright to help them breathe in and out. It might help them sit still if you can give them something to do while they receive their medicine.
